Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. linguine (fresh is best)
  • 3 Tbsp. soy sauce
  • 2 tsp. sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. vegetable oil or butter
  • 1/2 lb. boneless chicken breast, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 lb. bean sprouts, drained
  • 1/2 lb. cooked shrimp
  • curry powder and/or cayenne pepper
  • 3/4 c. tomato juice
  • 1 Tbsp. vinegar
  • 3/4 tsp. cornstarch
  • garlic to taste
  • 1/2 c. chopped green onions and tops

Method

  • Cook linguine according to package directions; drain.
  • Combine tomato juice, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and cornstarch; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil or butter in hot wok or large skillet. Add chicken and stir-fry 1 minute; remove.
  • (I cook my chicken until it is completely done which takes quite a bit longer than 1 minute.)
  • Add garlic, bean sprouts and green onions and stir-fry for 1 minute.
  • Stir in linguine and cook 2 more minutes or until heated through.
  • Return chicken with shrimp, curry, pepper and tomato mixture.
  • Cook, stirring until sauce boils and thickens. Makes 4 servings.
